The Rotary Club of Florence is now accepting nominations for the 2024 Teacher of the Year Award.
The nomination form is available online and will remain open until Friday, March 1. A candidate for Rotary Teacher of the Year should be an exceptionally dedicated, knowledgeable, and skilled teacher in any Boone County school — public or private — pre-kindergarten through grade twelve, who is planning to continue in an active teaching status.
Supervisory and administrative responsibilities should be of secondary consideration.
The club’s goal is to honor local teachers deserving of recognition for their actions.
“You do make a big difference in society,” Rotary Club of Florence Sergeant at Arms and former Boone County Schools board member Shawn Carroll said. “You help folks get on the path to success.”
To be eligible, your nominee must:
• Be currently employed as a teacher in a public or private school in Boone County
• Inspire students to engage and learn
• Have the respect and admiration of students, parents, and colleagues
• Play an active and useful role in the community, as well as, in the school
• Be poised, articulate, and possesses the energy to withstand a taxing schedule
• Exemplify the “Service Above Self” standard in his or her professional and community environment
• If the teacher has been previously nominated and was not the award winner they are still eligible for this award
The recipients will be honored at the club’s meeting to be held on Monday, April 22 starting at 11:45 am at the Florence Event Center, Northern Kentucky Area Development District, located at 22 Spiral Drive in Florence.
